Ashton (Ladysmith) Shopping Precinct

Ashton precinct was built in the 1960s and is typical of the period (lots of concrete, straight lines etc). Most of the shop frontages have been smartened up with canopies and the name "Ladysmith" has been added to its title, but it's still pretty much as I remember it from the early 1970s.
